Kids
MGMT (Kore-G Quick Bootleg) Lyrics

You were a child
At one point, you were young and inexperienced

Crawling on your knees toward him
You were willing to submit to another person, even if it meant you had to crawl to reach them

Making momma so proud
Your actions brought joy to your mother and made her proud

But your voice is too loud
However, your volume or opinion is not appreciated

We like to watch you laughing
Other people enjoy seeing you happy

Picking insects off of plants
You enjoy the simple pleasures of life such as observing nature

No time to think of consequences
You may not be considering the potential outcomes of your actions

Control yourself
Get a hold of yourself

Take only what you need from it
Only acquire what is necessary for you

A family of trees wanting to be haunted
An abundance of resources is available for the taking, but they may come with a sense of eerie or ghost-like presence

The water is warm
Conditions are comfortable and agreeable

But it's sending me shivers
Nevertheless, there is a feeling of unease or uncertainty

A baby is born
New life enters the world

Crying out for attention
The infant requires assistance and concern

Memories fade
Recollections and experiences are slowly slipping away

Like looking through a fogged mirror
Memories are increasingly hazy and unclear

Decisions too
Choices are also being affected by the passage of time and lack of clarity

Decisions are made
Regardless, decisions have to be reached

Decisions are made and not bought
Choices cannot be purchased or easily dealt with by money or material goods

But I thought this wouldn't hurt a lot
You may have assumed that the consequences of your decisions wouldn't be significant

I guess not
That hope or expectation did not come to fruition

Control yourself
Get a hold of yourself

Take only what you need from it
Only acquire what is necessary for you

A family of trees wanting to be haunted
An abundance of resources is available for the taking, but they may come with a sense of eerie or ghost-like presence

Control yourself
Get a hold of yourself

Take only what you need from it
Only acquire what is necessary for you

A family of trees wanting to be haunted
An abundance of resources is available for the taking, but they may come with a sense of eerie or ghost-like presence

Control yourself
Get a hold of yourself

Take only what you need from it
Only acquire what is necessary for you

A family of trees wanting to be haunted
An abundance of resources is available for the taking, but they may come with a sense of eerie or ghost-like presence

Control yourself
Get a hold of yourself

Take only what you need from it
Only acquire what is necessary for you

A family of trees wanting to be haunted
An abundance of resources is available for the taking, but they may come with a sense of eerie or ghost-like presence
